is it just because i'm out of college and uconn is mediocre or is college basketball less popular now than it's ever been?

partly you, partly the conference reshuffling i'll guess
― mookieproof, Thursday, 5 February 2015 02:34 (nine years ago) link
obviously by "ever been" you mean "your lifetime". It has slipped a bit compared to the last 5 years. But I don't think it's less popular than it was more than 5 years ago.

the 30 for 30 about the Big East is very good, and I'd imagine the end of the true Big East is indicative of something. I guess that's probably just that college football has grown at a larger clip than college basketball.

March Madness is still my favorite sport event of the year

College hoops is the pits now! Can't stomach a full game. Can only watch like the last 5 minutes of a game anymore and even then I need it recorded to ffwd the inevitable foul/ft fest. March madness is still amazing especially the first weekend cos you can jump from close game to close game and you don't have to watch full stretches.
The shot clock is ridiculous.
― Steph def def (Spottie), Thursday, 5 February 2015 03:05 (nine years ago) link
shot clock will be reduced next year

What's the proposed time?
― Steph def def (Spottie), Thursday, 5 February 2015 04:26 (nine years ago) link
30, I think

Hm maybe that'll help but still only halfway there. Best thing about college hoops to me is that a full court press actually often works.

shorten the shot clock? maybe lengthen the shot clock and have every team run 'cuse zone. 50 shades of grey crossover market.

there's a jim boeheim looking dude at my gym that's always yelling at the employees and doing curls while looking at himself in the mirror. can't stand this dude.

weird season for uconn, theyve def improved but i think their dfense is not good enough to run 3/4 games in this acc tourney…v tough loss 2 memphis where backup dude named BURRELL has the game of his life, and uconn shot terribly; i think we'd get the 5 seed if mem loses vs cincy & if we can win @ temple

― mookieproof, Saturday, 7 March 2015 02:41 (nine years ago) link
then the path is friday afternoon beat temple (only loss this season in hfd was to temple v end of ot down 2pts, hamilton was fouled shooting a 3 and missed all 3 shots) > sat morning in hartford there is a st patties day parade, whole city get trashed and then afternoon game vs. prob smu is rowdy & packed & they win > then sunday afternoon state is too hungover to show up & support them and they go out to a 30 pt effort by houston's Jherrod Stiggers :|

yea to charlotte, look p locked in to getting 2 #1 seeds, but 8/9 v 1 games are often kinda good & uva almost dropped its 1/16 game last yr so
― johnny crunch, Saturday, 7 March 2015 03:18 (nine years ago) link
absurd to choose charlotte over pittsburgh/portland/seattle (just on principle) but i'm sure you'll have a lovely time
presumably duke will be there, to their detriment. charlotte/greensboro are always packed with dirty carolina fans
― mookieproof, Saturday, 7 March 2015 03:25 (nine years ago) link
yea i mean portland/sea are just too far, i do agree basically, runner up was jacksonville tbh lol; 1 attendee is a duke fan supposedly
think i heard bilas? or someone get asked would u take uk or the field? & took uk - isn't super crazy but id not do that, im very impressed uk has gotten this far but im still not a believer they are going undefeated
